6DCT450 / MPS6 / PowerShift / DCT450
The Getrag 6DCT450, commonly known as MPS6 in Volvo applications and PowerShift in Ford applications, is a 6-speed wet dual-clutch transmission designed for higher-torque transverse-engine vehicles. It uses two wet multi-plate clutches and two input shafts, allowing alternate gears to be pre-selected for fast, smooth gear changes.
Specification: 6-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) • Wet dual multi-plate clutch • Approx. 450 Nm design class • Transverse layout • Electronically and hydraulically controlled • Two input shafts • Two output shafts • Integrated differential • Clutch 1 operates odd gears and reverse • Clutch 2 operates even gears • Front-wheel-drive and AWD applications depending on vehicle.
Commonly fitted to selected Ford Focus, Mondeo, Kuga, C-Max, S-Max and Galaxy, as well as Volvo C30, S40, V50, C70, S60, V60, V70 and S80 applications. Variants of the transmission family were also used by other manufacturers. Multiple versions, clutch configurations and calibrations exist, so the transmission identification and vehicle application should always be confirmed before ordering replacement parts.
